What follows are online resources that may be of use to the elderly and their adult children or other caregivers. The list is both long and likely incomplete. We welcome suggestions, additions and even subtractions. You may send them to newoldage@nytimes.com.

I'm a supporter of many of these sites listed by the New York Times and found them to be very helpful in my search for answers, support and education. I'm pleased to share this news worthy piece of information by Jane Gross in hopes to help others on the same journey I am traveling.

Thank you for posting these, I subscribe to NY Times and have for years. I find many helpful and informative colums, reports, medical services, Alerts, and health research resources.
My name is Kathy Hatfield and I am the primary caregiver for my 80 year old Dad who has Alzheimer's disease and lives with me in North Carolina.
I am writing a daily blog on my caregiver website that shows the lighter side of caring for someone with dementia. There is also lots of information about dementia and caregiving, as well as a LIVE CHAT every Tuesday night at 7:00 p.m. Eastern time for caregivers who need support, but cannot attend a “live” support group.
Please pass this link along to anyone you feel would enjoy it.
